For Lamb
Lesa Cline-Ransome
An attempted interracial friendship between to teenaged girls goes tragically wrong in this homage to the victums of racial violence in this powerful historical novel set in the Jim Crow South.
Lambs Story follows a family striving to better their lives in the late 1930s Jackson, Mississippi. Lambs mother is a hard-working, creative seamstress who cannot reveal she is a lesbian. Lambs brother has a brilliant mind and has even earned a college scholarship for a black college up north, if only he could curb his impulsiveness and rebellious nature. Lamb, herself is a quiet and studious girl. She is also naive. As she tentatively accepts the friendly overtures of a white girl who loans her a book she loves, she sets a off a calamitous series of events that pulls in her mother, charming huster uncle, estranged father, and brother and ends in a lynching. Told with nuance and subtlety, avoiding sensationalism and unnecessary brutality, this novel pays homage to the female victims of white supremacy.
